No, you should mention nothing to do with how a particular operating
system chooses to structure its code here. Bindings describe hardware,
and the commit message should reflect that.

Maybe that means something to Rob, but "reversed" doesn't seem any more
meaningful than inverse. I agree that it should be described in terms of
"active high" etc, as they have well understood meanings.

Gain has units too.

Should it be called "driving-level-compensate" then?

So, "realtek,driving-level" sets the gain and
"realtek,driving-compensate" adjusts the driving level.
By that logic, is this also a gain?

Also this property is only for the RTD1315e? That should be
described in/constrained by the binding itself, not in the text
description alone IMO.
